If you care about making sure we're not dependent on foreign countries for our energy, we have a very timely call to action that will take you less than 1 minute.

The Department of Interior, which decides when and where we drill for oil and gas, has been holding a "notice and comment" period. This is when they solicit input from the public as to whether we should drill or not.

This is one way that the anti-energy interest groups have been able to successfully block any common sense development for decades.

Well the deadline for submissions is on Monday, and we need your help to overwhelm the Interior Department with comments in favor of drilling.

If you don't have time to write anything, don't worry. We've already taken care of it for you.Once you submit your comment, please forward YourEnergyOpinion.com to anyone else that you think would be willing to help out.

This is an opportunity that we must seize.

Thanks so much for your participation, and we'll report back soon as to how we all do.

Apologies to Richard Betts & the Allman Brothers... I figure maybe they'll forgive me if they ever happen to see this. There's a weak tie of sorts between us. Many years back, when they were just beginning to be recognized by the world, I was friends with a guy who rode bikes with a few of the Allman Brothers. I met them a few times, never rode with them unfortunately (would have been a fun thing to claim!). They're a bit older than I am so I'm sure I never registered in their minds as anything other than a skinny little kid who wanted to be a big kid. Ah well, if I'd known they were going to be so HUGE in years to come, maybe I'd have an autograph or a photo. Maybe not.
